AbstractThe hetero-Diels-Alder reaction of 1-(2-furyl)-3-(dimethylamino)-2-propene-1-thione (diene) with maleic and fumaric acids, and β-nitrostyrenes yielded 3,4-dihydro-2H-thiopyran derivatives. Treatment of some of those cycloadducts with acetic acid caused elimination of dimethylamine yielding stable 2H-thiopyrans. Reaction of the diene with maleic anhydride furnished a cycloadduct which underwent spontaneous rearrangement to form an N,N-dimethylamide derivative. Cycloadditions of the diene to maleimide, N-phenylmaleimide, diethyl maleate, fumarate and butenolide, carried out in the presence of acetic anhydride,were followed by elimination of dimethylamine, afforded stable 2H-thiopyran derivatives.

The syntheses of decahydro-5,14:6,13:7,12-trimethanopentacene and decahydro-5,14:7,12-dimethanopentacene are described (see Schemes 1 and 2 respectively). Diels -Alder reaction of diene (10) with two equivalents of tetrachlorothiophen 1,1-dioxide (11) gave the adduct (12), which was aromatized to (13) through treatment with base. Reductive dechlorination (Na/ PriOH ) of (13) gave (6). A similar set of reactions performed on (17), itself prepared from cyclohexa-1,4-diene and two equivalents of hexachlorocyclopentadiene (15), gave (7). The crystal structures of (6) and (7) were determined. An interesting feature of the structure of (7) is the slight endo pyramidalization (by c. 3°) of the trigonal carbon atoms C 4a, C 7a, C 11a and C 14a. Model ab initio calculations (STO-3G basis set) on complexes (27) and (28), whose geometries were culled from the crystal structure of (6), indicate that significant laticyclic hyperconjugative interactions (c. 0.3 eV ) are mainly responsible for causing the observed splitting between the πs+πs and πs-πs levels in the photoelectron spectrum of (6). Orbital interactions through the pair of six connecting sigma bonds (OIT-6-B) in (6) have a negligible effect (c. 0.08 eV ) on these levels. In agreement with prediction, laticyclic hyperconjugation does not affect the πa+πa and πa-πa levels.
